Last Day in Madrid
We enjoyed our last day in Madrid by getting intentionally lost in the city. It was a drizzly day, but it didn’t slow the city down one bit.
We ate lunch at a casual chain called Rodilla, where we grabbed sandwiches and salads. It’s a very Madrid kind of place—simple, quick, and surprisingly good, especially for a chain that’s been around since 1939.
After lunch, we walked through the park, starting near Moncloa and heading south toward the Temple of Debod for another visit to this cool Egyptian temple. (I described this in a previous blog).
We wandered through the streets as the sun began to set and the rain finally let up. The city seemed to come alive even more, with the streets filling quickly with people heading out for the evening. Madrid really shines at night—it’s social, energetic, both historic and electric at the same time.
We got churros and chocolate again (because obviously), and just enjoyed those last glimpses of this wonderful city before heading back to our hotel.
Adiós, Madrid. We had a wonderful visit in your vibrant city.
